Abstract:

A feeder for dispensing solid water treatment chemicals into a circulating water system comprises a hopper for holding the solid water treatment chemicals, a housing for holding the hopper and for directing and containing the water to be treated, a water inlet and a water outlet. The hopper has a perforated floor that is separated into a water inlet portion and a water outlet portion. The water inlet feeds water through the water inlet portion where it contacts the water treatment chemicals. The treated water falls by gravity through the water outlet portion of the perforated floor, where it is directed to the water outlet by vacuum pressure. The hopper is removable to facilitate cleaning scale and other insoluble solids form the hopper and the surfaces surrounding it.

Abstract:

A method for identifying replacement parts includes receiving a sequence of images of a test part. A set of features of the test part is extracted from the sequence of images. The features include at least one of a dimension, a shape, a texture, a color, a material, a thread count, a spectral characteristic, a histogram threshold, scale invariant features, and keypoint features. The set of features of the test part are compared with a database of a plurality of replacement parts. The database stores a set of features of each of the plurality of replacement parts. At least one replacement part is identified in the database, which has a set of features similar to the set of features of the test part. The identified replacement parts are filtered based on priority. A priority list of replacement parts is developed, and is communicated to a user.
